Car commuters & other drivers are definitely noticing effects of Iran on oil & gasoline prices. This was earlier today in NJ on my way to the office. $0.48 per gallon higher than Feb 26.
Hopefully this is “transitory”

you're not wrong...maybe one dedicated to the detailed origins of Skynet...and the "people" who conceived & built it or its predecessors 🤔

If the original "Terminator" movie had a prequel...could this be the origin story of Skynet?

One of the biggest divergences in market overall & tech trade specifically...has been outperformance of semiconductors & underperformance of software...long chips & short software has produced massive return since June 2025.
What is potential catalyst for this trade being unwound for profits? 🤔

Markets can be tricky...
SCOTUS tariffs ruling giveth...then taketh away...

SPDR S&P Retail ETF intraday...upside volatility...that has been slowly eroded in the last 45 min...now trading where it was before announcement.

Let's see how things shake out by closing bell 🤔

Dow surges 700 points as markets try to recover from week's tech rout: Live updates Friday morning's moves followed a rough day on Wall Street, with the market once again bogged down by technology stocks.

Does it "feel" like a market where:
- Dow hits a record high
- S&P 500 is 2% below record high
- Nasdaq is 5% below record high
- VIX < 20
?

Cisco has finally surpassed its dotcom bubble high. Is the reinvented stock a buy from here? Today's Cisco looks little like the hardware-centric growth engine that briefly became the world's most valuable company at the height of the internet mania.

It took nearly 26 years...but Cisco stock has finally set a new record high...dating all the way back to March 27, 2000 during the dot com era.

A year ago...
#Silver prices were ~ $31
Today...
$100
Who's out there trying to scrounge through their attics & basements for any silver dollars they may have in inventory?
